Not to mention the “novelty” grenades being made by Hogan’s Heroes in their secret underground workshop. Every 10th (or so) grenade was “live”! 
Who remembers the amazingly accurate Tiger tank they got their hands on!
Well…they got the color right (sort of) for pre-spring 1943! 
Why was there a Tiger tank in a Luftwaffe POW camp?..Oh, never mind! 
Guess they didn’t have the budget for an M-47!
The radio is interesting. Coincidentally I’m taking a lunch break from re-watching the Railway Man, in which British radio operators sense impending imprisonment and secret radio radio parts on their person. Don’t want to think about how. They later cobble together a makeshift radio in their camp. Great movie if you haven’t seen it.
